Simply balancing the budget would be such an amazing accomplishment and create a much brighter outlook for us.

The deficit spending is killing us. The EVERYDAY AMERICANS thethe is always crying about are the ones hurt most

Every day Americans will be most impacted by the inflation that will be needed to cover the debt burden.

Every day Americans will be most impacted if… when austerity measures will be forced upon us when we have to make significant cuts to curb the debt death spiral.

The asset class will be okay as their assets (stocks, property) appreciate in line with inflation.

So why does Trump insist republicans go along with it or else should be primaries? Why doesnt he veto it until that shit if taken out? Why doesnt he fire the general who insist on it?

You claim he's this amazing fighter and negotiator but he never gets anything. He just insists republicans pass it and he signs it

And the career bureaucrats ('5 star generals') have lots a material portion of their power. Why do you think Hegseth was one of hte most vicious confirmations? You think people in DC care if he had some extra curricular activities with women and likes to throw a few back?

Hegseth wanted a trillion dollar budget. He bragged about it the day he found out.

Soon we will see costs increase right?

Definitely won't have rising wages for non supervisor class that outpaces inflation like we did in Trump term 1 right?

Again - When its not career bureaucrats controlling the spend that is when people get mad.

When did i ever say anything about the topline budget figure?

What are you talking about?

Costs have significantly risen in the last 10 years all as a direct result with our addiction to deficit spending

Do you... do you know how much the dollar has devalued since 2008?

Do you know why that is?

We are talking about now - Trumps actions right now and the impact his economic policies will have.

What happened in the past has already happened. Trump and team are recalibrating the whole system that caused this.

You should be furious with the topline number

I've been on record repeatedly that military spending should be down with a large portion being standing troops around the world (Trump brining that back).

I've been on record saying I don't like everything in this bill.

I have also been on record saying appropriated spend does not equal actual spend.

When there are budget surpluses a year from now will you say you were wrong?

I’m sorry. His actions at the end of term 1 accelerated all of this.

He’s maintaining that level of spending. He’s BRAGGING about how he is maintaining that level of spend and punishing those that spoke out.

His executive orders are all window dressing that will disappear day 1 Democrats are in power.

LOL - At the end of term 1.

Wonder if anything unique happened.

Lets just ignore where we were in the latter half of 2019 as a result of his economic policies.

I would be so happy if we pursued policies consistent with 2019.

Why are we maintaining spending in line with post COVID levels?

To get a bill across the line.

This is step 1. Then come the recissions and impoundments. When all these fake NGO's stop putting through invoices you'll understand.

Republicans have full control and a supposed "mandate" and they had to keep the and 9ncrease the biden spending to get a bill across the line?

Such an alpha

Also a budget surplus is not a balanced budget.

We will spend more money than we take in and we will print the shortfall. Our children will pay the price that today's adults are too cowardly to do
